I loved the show and it's mix of good character school drama, teaching methods, murder mystery, ethnic issues.
But then happened episode 4: because the principal is gay, was accused and omitted of sexually molesting a female student at another school and builds up a supporting relationship with some of his current school's male students, he becomes the prime suspect in spite of otherwise having no motive? Also,the detective and police officer investigating the murder start questioning the principals fitness for duty at a school because he is gay? Somehow suspecting a gay teacher wanting to help lost-in-life students when no one suspects the same from any other teacher, malenor female? And its not just a character flaw of the investigator, the principal takes it as a given that he has become a serious suspect and that while his history and sexual orientation are entirely unrelated to the crime (as far as anyone knows at that point), he feels under pressure to prove he his innocent... guilty until proven innocent?!
Big ouch.
